Found this email from a few days ago (attached) on a mac forum and thought it was quite funny (its real!)

Hi, We need a short run (literally 15) plastic id cards (no chips required) for our student radio station (they will need to have names and pictures on). Does anyone know a place that can do this? Thanks!

the x: drive is the disc drive and wpeinit just opens a new command window

just a blank command prompt, checked and its got an ip fine

I've installed MDT 2010 with WDS on Windows Server 2008 and I've added the LiteTouch WIM as a WDS Boot Image, but the problem I have is that when trying to boot clients it gets all the way to the end but does not load up the deployment interface?? anyone seen this/have any ideas?

I am working on a student/community radio project with little/no funding and I was wondering if anyone has any spare radio grade kit (particularly sonifex gear), would be willing to pay (and obviously cover P+P)!

apparently nothing has stopped responding?!

Hi, I keep getting this problem when coming out of sleep on my MBP running Snow Leopard. What happens is that the menu bar stays locked on an application (say Firefox for example) and no window (not even Firefox) can gain focus. The only way to fix this is to hold down the power button and reboot. Any ideas?

Hi, I'm looking for free parental control/web filtering software, but i haven't found any that can do whitelist filtering. Does anyone know of any that can?

We have used Creating yearbooks for everyone | AllYearbooks.co.uk

Thanks, will that need 5 servers to get to the count before it will activate the clients?

Hi, I am moving to Windows 7 + App-V over the summer (but starting the project now) and I have read through posts on the Windows 7 forum and I was wondering if anyone would care to share their experiences with these two technologies? any tips, tricks, scripts, etc? Also, couple of questions about Windows 7 - Is it possible to make the logon screen background rotate - if so, how? - What kind of pics do you use for wallpaper/logon screens - For the VL customers here, on Product Keys on VLSC, does the Win 7 - KMS key do Win 7 Enterprise activations?

Wow! How did you do that? (and also what kind of images do you use?)

I've used it before and I would definitely recommend it since it is so easy to install (all you need to do is replace the locks, and only network a few!). We installed it in our science center with a networked lock on the main door, and science staff room door and then replaced about 25 locks on the lab doors, gave everyone keys and the keys automatically configured the labs!

You should be able to just use the smartclient procedure (don't forget to install all the .NETs) and then enable the themes service and start it and then you will be able to select the Windows XP theme is desktop properties.

We don't - its too long so we stuck with a .co.uk

Why Solaris?

Hi, I'm doing some work for a students union so this needs to be business pricing, but I wanted to offer out to the edugeek advertisers (before my boss orders them!) a chance to beat a quote for 10x Adobe CS4 Design Standard at £260 each. PM's appreciated since I am out and about and unable to take phone calls (very busy!!)

Yes its the free hosted service as part of Live@Edu that runs ex2010.

This is what it looks like

We use Outlook Live (which is based on 2010) and in the exchange web control panel (i.e. https://your_server/ecp) there is an email migration tab that can do all this.

Another recommendation for CSNM! I just moved my website to CSNM after reading about them on here and I have to say they are absolutely excellent! The hosting was stable enough to survive the snow, and support requests are answered within a couple of hours! Great value for money as well (compared to 1&1, Fasthosts and GoDaddy)

We use all HP USDT/SFF's site wide and never a problem!
